Android Central Question

The S5 handbook says not to cover the back of the phone where there are antenna. Does this mean I can't keep it in a protective case? Thanks.

Welcome to Android Central! Cases are fine, because signal can pass through (as long as there's no metal in the case). The manual is referring to covering the antenna area with your hand, which can block signal. Remember the iPhone "Antennagate" controversy? Same issue.
